10. I sometimes wonder if Congress realizes the full extent of the disgust
"the people" are feeling...then I think they must know...and if they do, just don't care? expect it to go away? know people will lie to themselves?

3. How many times have they had them up there now with their dog and
pony show. They put on the show, the oil execs leave, the panel goes back to wherever and nothing changes, nothing comes out of their show.
